These Cottagecore decor gifts are perfect for everyone

Table runner in natural | £32 at Garden Trading

There essentially are two ways to do Cottagecore: whimsical and colourful or minimalist and neutral. Linen gifts fall firmly into the latter category, and are perfect for blending in with more contemporary interiors or Cottagecore style that's more on the Scandi side. Natural linen goes especially well with wood and is the perfect material for table runners, place mats, and cushions. 

Holkham utility basket | £30 at Garden Trading

Woven baskets also fit the Cottagecore bill perfectly, whether they're made from wicker, seagrass, or rattan. We advise sticking to natural, undyed baskets in a more open weave for that authentic rustic look. 

Antique French Limoges shabby chic violets porcelain teapot | £47.20 at Etsy

One of the staple feature of Cottagecore style is a collection of porcelain proudly displayed in the kitchen dresser, and a tea set or teapot with a floral motif is as cottage-y as it gets. The most traditional florals that are used in Cottagecore style are roses and violets, and they should be realistic and ideally hand painted. 

Decorative One Side Embroidered Pillow Cover, floral roses | £16.99+ at Etsy 

Embroidery is another Cottagecore staple, and floral embroidery even more so. An embroidered cushion can go virtually anywhere in the house, from bedroom to dining room, so is a very easy and failsafe gift. Again, if you want to stay true to the Cottagecore style, opt for realistic flowers over abstract and soft, muted colours over something very bright.

John Lewis & Partners Patchwork Quilted Bedspread | £160 at John Lewis & Partners 

A quilted bedspread will instantly transform a neutral bedroom into a cosy cottage-style bedroom. Look for intricate patchwork in harmonising, soft colours; in our opinion, this bedspread from John Lewis is Cottagecore perfection – pretty, subtle prints that will go with most bedrooms. 

Calamus Rattan Chair | £245 at La Redoute 

If they already have every cushion, throw, and vintage plate they could possible need, and they have space in a conservatory or even living room, consider this gorgeous natural rattan chair from La Redoute. It has such a unique design that they're guaranteed to be impressed. And we really like that it's made from real rattan, which adds to the charm. It's a big splurge, so it will need to go with their existing decor.
